第一篇：英國(guó)首相布朗慶賀中國(guó)國(guó)慶60周年賀詞

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China--and I would like to send my personal best wishes to the Chinese people and government and to the large Chinese community here in Britain.今年是中華人民共和國(guó)建國(guó)六十周年，我在此謹(jǐn)向中國(guó)人民、中國(guó)政府以及英國(guó)的華人華僑獻(xiàn)上我個(gè)人的衷心祝賀。

Since the 1970s, China’s reforms have brought more people out of poverty in a shorter time than in any other country in history – with profound effects not just for the one fifth of the world’s population who are Chinese but for us all.自上世紀(jì)七十年代以來，中國(guó)的改革讓更多人在短時(shí)間內(nèi)脫離了貧困，比歷史上任何其他國(guó)家所用的時(shí)間都要短。這一結(jié)果深刻影響到的不僅僅是占世界1/5比例的中國(guó)人，也包括我們所有人。

Today, the country that for centuries gave the world so many of its most important inventions and accounted for so much of its economic growth has been restored to its position as a great global power--and your role in the global economy means that we in Britain have a deep interest in your continued stability, prosperity and success.今天，這個(gè)數(shù)百年來為世界貢獻(xiàn)了眾多重要發(fā)明并在世界經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)中占了相當(dāng)大比重的國(guó)家，已經(jīng)重新回歸了其全球大國(guó)的地位——你們?cè)谑澜缃?jīng)濟(jì)中所扮演的角色也意味著，中國(guó)繼續(xù)的穩(wěn)定、繁榮和成功，對(duì)于英國(guó)也利益攸關(guān)。Built and strengthened through a policy of close dialogue and engagement, our relations today are the best that that they have ever been--and I would like to give three examples of this.現(xiàn)在，我們所建立并通過密切對(duì)話與交流政策而得以增強(qiáng)的兩國(guó)關(guān)系，處于歷史以來的最好階段，我來舉下面三個(gè)例子進(jìn)行說明。

Firstly, the global economy.I was particularly pleased to work closely with China’s leaders on the London summit earlier this year--and China’s determination to take its rightful place in international economic governance was welcomed by all in the G20.首先是世界經(jīng)濟(jì)，我非常高興能夠在今年上半年的倫敦峰會(huì)上與中國(guó)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人緊密合作——中國(guó)決心在國(guó)際經(jīng)濟(jì)治理中承擔(dān)適當(dāng)角色的決定受到了20國(guó)集團(tuán)所有成員的歡迎。

Secondly, on Climate Change, you have set targets for increased energy efficiency and renewables to help reduce carbon emissions, raising hope throughout the international community of reaching a workable international pact at Copenhagen that puts the world on a path towards low carbon growth – and the stakes could not be higher.第二，在氣候變化問題上。為了減少碳排放，你們已經(jīng)設(shè)立了提高能源使用效率及使用可再生能源的目標(biāo)，這使國(guó)際社會(huì)對(duì)在哥本哈根達(dá)成一個(gè)可行國(guó)際協(xié)議的希望大增，這一目標(biāo)的實(shí)現(xiàn)將帶領(lǐng)全世界走向低碳經(jīng)濟(jì)的道路——我們的“賭注”不能再大了。

Thirdly, trade.Despite the downturn, the EU and China trade more with each other than with anyone else – and I am committed to reaching our bilateral trade target of $60 billion dollars by 2010.Developing and maintaining open markets will be crucial to help achieve that goal--and for our part, Britain will continue to welcome wholeheartedly investment from overseas, including from sovereign wealth funds.第三是關(guān)于貿(mào)易。盡管處于低迷時(shí)期，歐盟和中國(guó)之間的貿(mào)易量也超過了其他貿(mào)易伙伴，我將致力于使我們的雙邊貿(mào)易額到2010年時(shí)能夠達(dá)到 600億美元的目標(biāo)。要實(shí)現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)，關(guān)鍵是發(fā)展及維護(hù)一個(gè)開放的市場(chǎng)——對(duì)我們來說，英國(guó)將繼續(xù)熱誠歡迎來自海外的健康投資，包括主權(quán)財(cái)富基金。

Chinese investment in the UK is already exceeding the ambitious targets that Premier Wen and I set at the beginning of this year, and I am sure that the World Expo in Shanghai in 2010--the largest there has ever been--will do even more to further our shared objectives, from climate change to trade and technological innovation.中國(guó)在英國(guó)的投資已經(jīng)超過了溫家寶總理和我在今年初所定下的雄心勃勃的目標(biāo)，我確信2010年上海世博會(huì)——有史以來最大的一次世博會(huì)——將會(huì)更進(jìn)一步推進(jìn)我們共同的目標(biāo)，這些目標(biāo)領(lǐng)域涵蓋了從氣候變化到貿(mào)易和科技創(chuàng)新。So once again, let me send my best wishes to the people of China on this important anniversary--and I look forward to growing ties of understanding and co-operation between our two nations in the years ahead.在此，我再次向中國(guó)人民就這一重要周年送上我的祝福——我衷心希望未來我們兩國(guó)的關(guān)系在理解及合作的基礎(chǔ)上不斷增強(qiáng)。

Dear Friends: 親愛的朋友們：

I wanted to wish you a very happy Chinese New Year as we enter the year of the Tiger, a year traditionally associated with good fortune and power.在即將邁入象征著好運(yùn)和力量的虎年之時(shí)，我祝大家虎年春節(jié)快樂。

In this auspicious year, the Government will continue to promote the values we share in common with the thriving Chinese community: a belief in hard work, enterprise, community spirit and strong families.We are doing all we can to ensure economic stability and job security and I am proud that many Chinese entrepreneurs continue to create employment and contribute to the nation's GDP.在這吉祥的一年，英國(guó)政府將繼續(xù)提倡我們與欣欣向榮的華人群體共同認(rèn)可的價(jià)值觀念：努力工作，積極進(jìn)取，集體精神和家庭和諧。我們正盡己所能確保經(jīng)濟(jì)和就業(yè)率的穩(wěn)定。我很高興地看到許多中國(guó)企業(yè)家繼續(xù)在英國(guó)創(chuàng)造就業(yè)并促進(jìn)了GDP增長(zhǎng)。

So as we join in the celebration of the New Year with Chinese communities all around the world, please do pass on my warm best wishes for the New Year to your family and friends.在這個(gè)我們與全世界華人共同歡慶佳節(jié)的時(shí)刻，請(qǐng)將我最真誠的祝福帶給你們的家人和朋友。

第五篇：英國(guó)首相布朗2010年新年致辭

In 2009 we said goodbye to Harry Patch, the last survivor of the generation of soldiers who risked their lives for Britain in the Great War.As we mourned him, we remembered too all those who have laid down their lives in the defence of this country we love.Last year was particularly tough for our forces in Afghanistan, and we face some more difficult months ahead.In late December we were reminded at this decade’s end, just as we were at its beginning, that there is a terrorist threat which puts our safety and security at risk and which requires us to take on al Qaeda and the Taliban at the epicentre of global terrorismthose who think things can never change, and those who believe they have to.And I think the vast majority of people are in the second camp.We are a nation that looks to the future, combining responsibility with fairness, compassion with aspirationa crisis that hit Britain hard because the financial sector is such an important part of our economy.But this is a nation of fighters and believers who meet each challenge with strength and sacrifice.We fought back against recession because we stood together and did not leave people isolated to face a difficult future on their own.Britain has learnt the bitter lessons of previous recessionsand if the experience of the last recession had been repeated, people’s chances of having a job would have been four times worse after they became unemployed, repossessions twice as bad and company insolvencies two and a half times worse.The decisions taken by Alistair Darling and all the ministers of this Government have meant that we have already seen off the worst of the recession.There is no denying it has been painful for somemore than at any point since records of this began in the 1980s, and fewer businesses closed in 2009 than in 2008.And I am confident that if we continue with the tough decisions we have made, unemployment will start to drop this year, and more small businesses will open and flourish.That wasn’t inevitable;it was the change we chose.And so my message today is simple;don’t wreck the recovery.The recovery is still fragile, and it needs to be nurtured in the interests of those who were hit hardest by the recessionthey simply want a bit of help to own their own home, set up their own businesses and give their children the best start in life.Because everyone who is willing to work hard and aim high deserves a fair shot at meeting their aspirations.My whole life in politics has been about trying to provide a ladder of opportunity, so that what matters is not where you come from but what you have to contribute.And that is the vision that will guide this Government in the tough decisions ahead.So let me talk to you about my key priorities for the coming yearand people with such high aspirationsand it is this strategy that means we are also able to cooperate with President Obama on non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, and with our European neighbours and others on defeating catastrophic climate change.So those are my priorities.My belief is that this is going to be a great decade for a great nation.If we continue to make the right decisions to unleash all the talent that is to be found in these islands, we have much to look forward to-and you and your families have my warm best wishes for the year ahead.
